BOOK REVIEW: BLOOD MOON by Teri Harman

BLOOD MOON

Forget all your preconceptions of old witches with warts,
pointed hats and flying broomsticks. Teri Harman brings her readers to a
modern-day world of witches where the natural elements of the earth hold the
key to their power. And not only are there good witches (light witches) who
respect the earth and use magic for the good of humanity, but there are opposing
bad witches (dark witches) who are only out for world domination and power.
These two forces come head to head in this story of a young woman and young man who
have just come to grips with the fact that they are witches. They find
opposition and rejection from those they love, but love and acceptance from
others of their kind as they learn to develop and control their powers. Set in
modern-day United States, we learn that witches lead quite normal lives: They marry,
have families and carry jobs. But dark witches are ever seeking to destroy the
light witches, so they must remain vigilant at all times. When together, the
light witches have more power to fight the dark witches, but dark witches are
known for their underhanded and shady tactics, at times catching the light
witches off guard. Will the light witch covens survive the onslaught of evil
unleashed by the dark covens? Find out in BLOOD MOON, Harman’s first
installment in her Moonlight Trilogy.

Harman’s beautiful story-telling envelopes readers,
bringing them into the story, and allowing them to feel the characters’ pains,
difficulties and triumphs. The story ends with a sum up, but also purposeful loose
ends that lead right into her second book, BLACK MOON, due out September 16,
2014.

Come join her launch party for BLACK MOON on September
20, 2014 at THE KING’S ENGLISH bookshop, 7-9pm (located at 1511 South 1500
East, Salt Lake City, Utah, 84105, United States)

BLOOD MOON and BLACK MOON can be found in paperback and

About Me

I grew up in a small town outside Yosemite National Park, California, U.S.A. I enjoy soccer, piano, reading, writing, art and my family. Years ago I spent 18 months in Italy teaching the gospel of Jesus Christ. Seeing the castles and old Roman cities enhanced my fascination for ancient and medieval culture. In college I studied zoology, botany and criminal justice. I've worked as a wildland firefighter and a police officer, but I am currently a stay-at-home mom, surviving multiple sclerosis, and spending time with my children and husband. I love thinking up new ideas for interesting stories and musical compositions to go with them.
